MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION SEPTEMBER 12, 196 Keis asked about the archery business located on Country Drive. The City Planner reported that this property is zoned I -1. A few years ago the City split up the commercial recreation uses between various zoning districts. While archery ranges were allowed in the I -1 District, some of the other uses were broken out. Knudsen indicated that the Commission's options are either to amend the code allowing the Grand Slam use in the I -P District, or to deny Grand Slam on the basis that this is not an approved use. Keis suggested the matter could be tabled while staff does some research on the types of recreational uses allowed by other cities in their industrial areas. Keis agreed if Grand Slam is not allowed in the I -P District, then bowling alleys and skating rinks should be deleted as permitted uses as well. Don Rue reported that he owns two buildings in the area and he opposed the proposal because of additional traffic into the area and limited parking area. Schletty agreed that research needed to be done on this issue. Schletty felt the recreational uses should either be expanded to allow Grand Slam, or restricted removing bowling alleys and skating rinks as permitted uses in the I -P District. A gentleman from the audience reported that his daughter owns the house adjacent to Di -Med Corporation. It was his feeling that if the Grand Slam use is allowed, there should be some requirements attached to the Conditional Use Permit requiring screening, security lighting, etc. Keis indicated there may be these sorts of requirements in the Code already. The Planner replied that the Code states that security lighting is not permitted to shine or glare onto adjacent properties. Typically screening of industrial uses is not required from non - conforming uses, and no screening is required between industrial uses. However, the City could require screening for the residential home as a condition of the CUP. Keis indicated that these concerns would be taken under 6 Page 13
